Interesting discovery regarding 2k15 Advanced Entrances

[buffdiaz]

After playing around a bit, I saw that if you drag your 2K15 Entrance pacs to the 2K16 evt folder it gives you full access to the advanced entrances for the port over project! 

For example:

Alberto Del Rio

CM Punk

Great Khali

Hollywood Hogan (didn't have advanced entrance available in 2k15)

Hulk Hogan (didn't have advanced entrance available in 2k15)

RVD (didn't have advanced entrance available in 2k15)

Rey Mysterio

 

This includes Walltrons, Minitrons, Titantrons, and of course entrances. The only requirements are to have Cavewave Rider's tool and a copy of 2k15. 

All you have to do is assign them in a moveset file with the correct numbers according to Pozzum's 2k15 Memory Table and VOILA! Full compatibility.

 

The files you're looking for are:

Entrance 00-08.pac

evt_belt01-03.pac

evtmov_bg_mini

evtmov_bg_wall

evtmov_ss_mini

evtmov_ss_wall

PS. Just made another observation, if you're using Robbie's Render Pack for your game, you'll notice that some of the replaced characters are DLC. In this case, whomever is over a DLC slot, their trons or music seemed to be synced to the DLC character and doesn't allow you to change it. (ex/ Rey Mysterio keeps coming out to Tatsumi Fujinami song, minitron, and music). One way around it is to replace that slot's own multimedia with the character of your choice.

The way around it is to take the pac file with the entrance inside of it and rename it to the DLC's pac file to replace it. Then use HEX editor to change the evt number you desire to the DLC number.

PS, sorry for the typo on the Title. Damn sexy smartphone keyboards!

After doing so, does custom music work with the entrances during gameplay? 

[JPottz]

Did regular Hogan (or DLC Hogan) have an advanced entrance? I can't seem to find the files him.

[buffdiaz]

Custom music does work, but Hogan as you're pointing out, isn't available. I'm just leaving that to Tekken's magic to make another custom advanced entrance outta nowhere like his Hollywood Hogan's.

 

The files you're looking for are:

Entrance 00-08.pac

evt_belt01-03.pac

evtmov_bg_mini

evtmov_bg_wall

Have you tried the prop files as well? This could be the way to add ADR car back in?

I can confirm with Tekken's community Dlc and this method Hogan's entrance adds back the boa and his shirt ripping.

F'n A! Now we're cooking!

I can confirm that, too. He has his boa back in the ring and hit shirt ripping is also working :D. The game still reads that files.

Hey Visitor X, do you think something like this could work with the 2k15 sound files If we could link the references to 2k15 superstars?

[TheVisitorX]

I've had the same thoughts! Maybe it is possible but I'm not sure. The game still reads sound files from last year. Maybe we can use that to force the game to load that old files. But we also need to find out how the game reads/links that files. I think the relations are somewhere in the sound.pac file. I will test that later.

Use 412 for Hogan's P.O.W entrance instead of 109. He will also be able to use custom music. No advanced entrance needed. Which are the prop files and where do i put them in 2k16?

Is the boa only showing up in ring for you guys?  The shirt tear is working great now!  Boa is only appearing when he goes to take it off for me.

The Boa was removed prior to to this discovery (It was originally in the Hogan.pac, but for some weird reason caused the game to crash at the entrance). I'll take a look at it later to see if works now.

Excellent discovery buffdiaz! many thanks for sharing it with us.

Dragging'n'dropping those WWE 2K15 files into the WWE 2K16 "evt" folder automatically assigned trons/minitrons/walltrons for me to my imported WWE 2K15 wrestlers (ADR, RVD, Hogan Pow, Hogan R&Y, Cm Punk) .

Now I am trying to work on the (109)  Hogan's "modern" model entrance (Yellow and red) with boas and shirt ,  since  my Hogan Pow is already perfect (shirt, head band, music,video, entrance and everything ) .

I am trying to add boas and proper shirt, bandana, sunglasses to the Red and Yellow Hogan entrance "109" , Do you think it'll be possible?

Unfortunately the advanced creation entrance made with  Cavewave Rider's tool  for char/entrance 109 doesn't work because the game  skips it after injecting it   with CE   (easy entrance works!), I am still tying to figure out what's the problem that causes it...any hint from you guys would be appreciated

i didnt understand how can we add the files from wwe 2k15 to the game can someone tell me ?

[buffdiaz]

Drag those specific files to the pac folders for WWE 2K16. The entrance files to the evt folders and the evtmov files to their corresponding mov folders

[Chapy]

Could someone upload the files needed for this? I never got 2K15 for PC so can't do it myself.

[eggie25]

Which file controls P.O.W Hogan ripping his shirt?

[buffdiaz]

Which file controls P.O.W Hogan ripping his shirt?

evt_prop_dlc60 from the DLC 60 folder. Just download all the prop files in the evt folders just to be sure.
